Rate–distortion Optimal Boundary Encoding Using an Area Distortion Measure
In this paper an optimal boundary encoding algorithm in the rate-distortion sense is proposed. Second-order Bspline curves are used to model object boundaries. An additive area distortion measure between the original boundary and its approximation is employed in the optimazation process. The problem is formulated in a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) paradigm, and the shortest path solution is used...
متن کاملInteractive map projections and distortion
We introduce several new methods for visualizing map projections and their associated distortions. These methods are embodied in the Interactive Map Projections system which allows users to view a representation of the Earth simultaneously as a sphere and as a projection with the ability to interact with both images. The relationship between the globe and the projection is enhanced by the use o...

متن کاملFast Equal-Area Mapping of the (Hemi)Sphere using SIMD
We present a fast vectorized implementation of a transform that maps points in the unit square to the surface of the sphere, while preserving fractional area. The mapping uses the octahedral map combined with an equal-area parameterization and has many desirable features such as low distortion, straightforward interpolation, and fast inverse and forward transforms. Our SIMD implementation compl...
متن کاملDiscrete Geometry and Projections
This book is devoted to a discrete Radon transform named the Mojette transform. The Radon transform specificity is to mix Cartesian and radial views of the plane. However, it is straightforward to obtain a discrete lattice from a Cartesian grid while it is impossible from a standard equiangular radial grid. The only mathematical tool is to use discrete geometry that replaces the equiangular rad...
